About the Item

Title: Tranquil Mountain Lake and Hillside Landscape Watercolor Artist: Pierre Neveu (French b.1929) Medium: Watercolour on card unframed Size (H x W): 14.75 x 7.75 inches Signed lower right Condition: Good overall, with light handling marks and soft edge wear consistent with age. No major tears or losses observed. Provenance: From the artist’s studio sale in France; all works by this artist in our collection originate from the artist’s estate. Description: This atmospheric watercolor presents a tranquil lakeside scene framed by softly rising hills and distant mountains, rendered in a restrained palette of cool blues and muted greens. The composition draws the viewer’s eye across the still water toward layered forms in the background, where misty contours suggest depth, distance, and changing light. In the foreground, loosely painted foliage and a sloping roofline introduce a quiet human presence without dominating the natural setting. The artist’s handling of watercolor is confident yet subtle, allowing washes to bleed and settle naturally, creating tonal variation and a sense of calm movement across the surface. The sky and hills dissolve gently into one another, evoking early morning or overcast conditions, while the reflective surface of the lake anchors the scene with balance and stillness. The restrained use of detail enhances the contemplative mood, inviting prolonged viewing rather than immediate narrative. Signed by the artist, this work reflects a modern European watercolor sensibility, prioritising atmosphere and place over strict topographical accuracy. While the scene is not inscribed with a specific location, its alpine character and lakeside setting suggest inspiration drawn from mountainous regions, possibly observed during travel or study. This piece would suit collectors drawn to serene landscapes and understated colour palettes, and would sit comfortably in both traditional and contemporary interiors. Its vertical format and calming tonal range make it particularly well suited to intimate spaces, reading areas, or quiet living environments.
